Abstract: Methods of improving protein production in animal cell cultures are provided. Cell culture methods are presented wherein glucose is fed in a restricted manner to cell culture; this restricted feeding of glucose to the cell culture results in lactate production being controlled to a low level. The restricted feeding of glucose in a fed-batch process is not accomplished through a constant-rate feeding of glucose, and the restricted feeding need not depend on sampling. Instead, restricted feeding of glucose to the culture is accomplished through feeding of glucose to the culture at a rate that is a function of an expected or a premodeled rate of glucose consumption by the animal cells when exposed to medium containing a high level of glucose. Because lactate production is controlled to low levels, recombinant protein production is increased.

Abstract: In a procedure for automatically placing components of a circuit on a base plate based on predefined position data, the position of at least one first reference mark formed at the base plate is detected. A target position for placing a substrate on the base plate is calculated based on the detected position of the first reference mark and the position data, and the substrate is placed at the calculated position. The position of at least one second reference mark formed at the substrate is detected and a target position for placing a further component on the substrate is calculated based on the detected position of the second reference mark and the position data predefined for said component, and the component is placed at the calculated target position.

Abstract: An anti-twist device for a sealing cap that is located on a fixed connecting piece of a motor vehicle radiator. The sealing cap comprises an external cap part with a grip element and a sealing element, which can be connected to a counter sealing element of the connecting piece and in relation to which the grip element can be rotated. The sealing cap also comprises an internal cap part comprising a valve assembly that is configured in an excess/negative pressure combination. An anti-twist stop acts in the external cap part between the grip element and the sealing element. An anti-twist device of this type has a no-load function instead of a locking function and yet has a simple construction and is easy to produce. To achieve this, the anti-twist stop can be actuated by means of a drive, which is controlled by the operating data in the container and is located inside said container in close proximity to the external cap part.

Abstract: A plastic bag comprises opposing body panels (12, 14) fixedly connected to each other along a pair of sides and a bottom bridging the pair of sides. A reclosable zipper (32) extending along a mouth portion formed opposite the sealed bottom of the plastic bag. The zipper is preferably free of graspable upper pull flanges in order to best accommodate a slider (32) and inhibit operation of the zipper without the slider (32). The slider (32) is mounted to the zipper for movement between a closed position and an open position. The zipper is closed while the slider is in the closed position. The zipper is opened in response to movement of the slider to the open position. To inhibit tampering with the contents of the bag, the bag includes a tamper-evident feature (40). In one set of embodiments, the tamper-evident feature (40) initially maintains the slider in the closed position and allows the slider to move away from the closed position toward the open position in response to removing or breaking the tamper-evident feature. In another set of embodiments, the tamper-evident feature initially maintains a mouth portion of the plastic bag in a folded position and allows the mouth portion to be unfolded in response to removing or breaking the tamper-evident feature.

Abstract: Un fluide viscoélastique aqueux, gélifié avec un agent tensioactif viscoélastique (VES) est stabilisé et amélioré par ajout d'une quantité efficace d'un oxyde d'un métal alcalinoterreux et/ou d'un hydroxyde d'un métal alcalinoterreux. Ces fluides sont plus stables et ont une tendance réduite, voire, aucune tendance à précipiter, en particulier aux températures élevées. Les additifs peuvent également accroître la viscosité de manière telle qu'une quantité moindre de VES est requise pour maintenir une viscosité déterminée. Ces fluides viscoélastiques aqueux, stabilisés, optimisés, peuvent être utilisés comme fluides de traitement de formations hydrocarbonées souterraines, par exemple, en fracturation hydraulique.
